Insurance Claims

What You Should Know...

No one is prepared for a disaster or injury. Once you are faced with a disaster or severe damage to your home or business, most people do not possess the time or experience to properly handle negotiations for payment of their insurance claim against a billion dollar insurance company. The larger your claim, the more experience and help you will need to get your claim paid in a timely manner, for its full value.

Unfortunately, although many insurance companies advertise that they will take good care of you and pay full value for your injuries and insurance claim, the truth is that insurance companies don't make money by paying out claims. Insurance companies make money by selling insurance policies and collecting premium payments from policyholders, like you. In fact, insurance companies can only lose money they have already made, by paying out insurance claims. So, as you can imagine, insurance companies are not always happy or willing to pay insurance claims.

As a result, many valid insurance claims are still investigated, denied or simply paid at a fraction of their full value, so that insurance companies can make more money and lose less. Our firm helps everyday people, homeowners and businesses from the start of the claim process, to get their claim paid for its full value and to avoid the common mistakes that lead to low/no payment, a claim investigation or denial by the insurance company. If your insurance company has already denied your claim, we can help you to fight for payment through legal action against your insurance company to recover the full value of your claim. If your claim is placed under investigation, we can represent you throughout the investigation, including representation at Examinations Under Oath (EUO) and by communicating with the insurance company on your behalf.

It is our suggestion that you never sign documents from your insurance company regarding your claim, until you have spoken with an attorney, who can fully explain the content of the document you have been asked to sign. Therefore, it is important that you contact us as early in the claim process as possible to avoid common problems or mistakes that can occur with insurance claims.
